That hippo is totally looking at the camera. "Ooh, you like to watch? I'll show you something, alright..."

I've had the privilege of seeing live hippo sex a number of times. (If you show up bright and early in the morning to the Pangani Forest Trail at Disney's Animal Kingdom, you stand a pretty good chance of enjoying some hippo-rotica as well.)

Gwaaaaaahhhhh I finally broke down and opened this thread!

I'm about to squee and I'm not sure if that's appropriate this early in the morning.

One of our dragon enclosures is in our bedroom. That one has a couple in it. We quite often get to watch them mate (whether we want to or not).

I knew that dragons have two 'boy parts', but was never quite sure how the logistics of things worked until recently. It was actually rather impressive. Only one is used at a time, but how it does the job is what was interesting.

Ok, we need a house so I can have a pet miniature cow:

Err, I hope you expect to have a barn with that house. Something tells me they don't exactly leave, say, the equivalent of bunny pellets.

I've decided I want chickens again. I had them growing up but I want them again.

Don't worry, I'm not getting any....yet.

Sounds like we need to stage an intervention.

didnt Jack in the Box do a commercial recently concerning mini-cattle with their slider burgers? something about cattle the size of schnauzers?

not that it has anything to do with anything, but the pics reminded me of it

I don't want chickens. I want genetically mutated chicks that never grow up. Cute and fuzzy fo-evah!
